Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Drug Pushers Getting Richer

Crystal meth, crank and speed.
Making drug pushers rich.
Drugs no one needs.
But some do.
Now.
They have to have it.

Caffeine pills and high energy drinks are bad enough
Getting hooked on crystal meth, crank or speed,
Making drug pushers rich,
And making families sad.
Drugs that ruin people.
Taking away their potential.

Why don’t we legalize them?
So we can wean the addicted off, and 
Drug pushers will have to move somewhere else to get rich?

Jennifer Proxenos September 1, 2019 at 2:01 AM Your lovely write speaks of the truth of taking drugs Caren. It devastates the whole family and sometimes an overdose can kill them. Youngsters as young as 13 I'v seen on TV take drugs, what will their lives be like at 21, if they live that long! Love this, Hugs, Jennifer Caren Krutsinger September 1, 2019 at 9:53 AM It is so sad. If the government took over the drug trade and the pushers stopped making money,we could wean people off gradually and families could get back to normal. The pushers would stop pushing because it would not be profitable any more. Win-win, right?
